Gen. Sinclair concerned about legal team

Brig. Gen. Jeffrey Sinclair, charged with sexual misconduct, wants to add civilian
lawyers to his legal team. He says his military lawyers are concerned their careers
would be harmed by defending him. In court Thursday at Fort Bragg for a hearing on
pre-trial motions, Sinclair faces court martial in June on charges that include
forcible sodomy, indecent acts, violating orders and adultery. He has thus far
deferred entering a plea.
